When it came to celebrating her 37th birthday, Carrie Underwood decided to skip the usual extravaganzas—no massive parties, endless food, or champagne toasts. Instead, the country music superstar opted for something a bit more meaningful. She celebrated her special day by diving into an intense workout session, proving once again that fitness and health are top priorities in her life.
“This is 37! Birthday workout in the books,” Carrie captioned a radiant selfie she posted on Instagram Stories on Tuesday, March 10. The photo showed her with two pigtails, wearing a purple top, and rocking a glowing, makeup-free complexion. It was clear that Carrie wasn’t just going through the motions—this workout meant something to her.
A Sweet Treat After the Sweat
After breaking a sweat, Carrie indulged in a little treat that kept her health goals intact. “Birthday cake for the birthday girl!” she wrote alongside a photo of a protein bar. This small but significant choice showed how Carrie balances her love for fitness with a bit of indulgence. It’s all about moderation, right?

Her Journey to Wellness
For Carrie, the road to wellness hasn’t always been smooth. The “Jesus, Take the Wheel” singer—who’s a proud mom to two sons, Isaiah, 5, and Jacob, 14 months, with her husband Mike Fisher—has faced her fair share of insecurities. Even though she looks incredible after having her boys, she’s been open about the struggles she’s faced in maintaining her body.
Back when Carrie first rose to fame after winning American Idol in 2007, she was caught in a cycle of extreme dieting and exercise. At the time, she didn’t realize how much it was affecting her. “I would ‘fall off the wagon,’ then feel terrible and repeat the cycle,” she admitted to Woman’s Health earlier in March. “Your body is screaming out, I need more calories, I need more carbs!”
Carrie’s New Approach to Health
These days, Carrie’s outlook on health has shifted dramatically. She’s found a balance that works for her, one that includes enjoying life’s little pleasures without guilt. “I love rules,” Carrie explained to the outlet. “This is how I feel good about myself, and this is how I operate.” It’s all about setting boundaries while still allowing herself the occasional dessert or burger.
Staying Active, No Matter What
Despite her busy schedule, Carrie remains committed to her fitness routine. “If I can work out seven days a week—which doesn’t happen, but if I can—I’m going to,” she revealed. “Because the next week, I might get two days.” Her dedication to staying active is inspiring, showing that even when life gets hectic, making time for yourself is crucial.
We wish Carrie a fantastic birthday filled with love, laughter, and maybe just a few more protein bars!
